One mole of a substance is equal to 6.022 × 10²³ units of that substance (such as atoms, molecules, or ions). The number 6.022 × 10²³ is known as Avogadro’s number or Avogadro’s constant. The concept of the mole can be used to convert between mass and number of particles.. Created by Sal Khan.

The SI base unit for amount of substance is the mole. 1 mole is equal to 1 moles H2S, or 34.08088 grams. Note that rounding errors may occur, so always check the results.

Avogadro says one mole of particles contain 6.02 x 10^23 particles. Hence, 2 moles of water molecules contains 2 x 6.02 x 10^23 molecules.

Big, because atoms and molecules are way too small to count, so we mass large numbers of them instead, and use molar mass to convert to the NUMBER of moles of them. This number is then used in a ratio conversion based on the mole ratios in the balanced chemical equation.

Grams depends on the molecule itself, oxygen weighs more than hydrogen. But using moles gets rid of the mass concern, because a mole represents a specific amount of molecules, independant of weight. Mass doesn’t affect the outcome of a reaction, atom counts do.

1 mole = 6.022×1023 particles (atoms or molecules) 1 mole=6.02214179*1023 atoms or molecules present in it.

When substances react, they do so in simple ratios of moles. However, balances give readings in grams. Balances DO NOT give readings in moles. So the problem is that, when we compare amounts of one substance to another using moles, we must convert from grams, since this is the information we get from balances.
